Jagat

Jagat is a Sanskrit word that means "world," specifically the physical world or planet. In AdvaitaVedanta, jagat is understood as a persons' subjective experience of reality in the material world. It is described specifically in contrast to Brahman, which is considered to be the Supreme Reality, Infinite and Omnipresent. In this understanding, jagat is considered an illusion and unreal in comparison to Brahman. Brahman is the truly awakened state, where individuals rediscover their oneness with Brahman.

Yogapedia explains Jagat

Advaita Vedanta can be translated as "the path to experiencing the truth." Jnana Yoga - the yoga of wisdom or knowledge - is part of Advaita Vedanta. It is considered by some to be the most difficult of all the yogic paths.

To experience jagat without recognizing it as illusion, is considered by Jnana yogis to be living in a dream-like state. In order to achieve Self-realization, yogis must recognize that jagat is illusory because this illusion is what prevents the understanding of the true Self.

This unreality is sometimes called maya and causes humans to falsely perceive themselves as separate from Brahman. Maya makes people identify themselves as disconnected parts of what is in reality a whole.
